“My friends and fellow citizens, we live in challenging times. Religious freedom is indeed under fire. And things may get worse before they get better.
But these are our times. This is our moment to defend our fundamental freedoms. With courage, conviction, and civility—drawing upon our noble heritage as Americans—each one of us can make a profound difference.
As the great Winston Churchill said on the eve of the world’s greatest conflict, let us “arise again and take our stand for freedom as in the olden time.”41 As fellow believers and citizens of this great nation, we can do no less.
Thank you, and may God bless you and this wonderful nation.”
